Paint your wild spirit!
“Paint Your Wild Spirit” online course experience IS HERE! I am sooooo excited to be sharing this with you, inviting you deeper into my world of creativity. It can feel edgy af to reveal my behind the scenes art making and experiences, and yet I am following the impulse, step by the step….the same way I do when making my art, whether painting or creating with glass, or writing or sewing.
CLICK HERE to learn ALL about it!
Enrollment will only happen once a year so check it out if you’re feeling even a little curious.
Step by step….or, Bird by Bird as Anne Lamott says in her essential book about writing.
When I read her book years ago, I felt so much permission in all my creative work, since it applies to everything, not just writing. The “shitty first draft” can be true in paintings too.
Wow, what a relief! In this way, I can express, make a mess, learn about colour, texture, shape, value in the shitty first, second and maybe third or more drafts/paintings. Eventually a painting will reveal itself that can stand on it’s own.
Impulse by impulse a painting is born.
The way you tell your story with paint can feel very rewarding and satisfying.
We all have stories to tell, with words, with imagery, with paint, with feelings…..how do we get out of the way so that we can bring these stories to life on the canvas?
Yes, we don’t only have to use words to tell stories, we can paint our stories metaphorically with colour, texture, shape, layers, mark-making and imagery.
You can be a modern day cave painter, exploring and expressing your inner and outer worlds with paint and mixed media onto any type of surface so that you can consistently find freedom and JOY in your creative expression.
(and give ourselves a freakin' break)
Think you don’t have a story to tell or paint? 100% not true
Think your story is uninteresting or not worth telling/painting? 100% not true.
Do you think you're too old? it's too late? this won't work for you? NOT TRUE! not true, not true!
(I used to believe all of these things)
Your soul and spirit have a story, underneath the layers of conditioning and judgement there’s a story waiting to unfold....
